Adding weight to the front of me arrow
« on: October 12, 2014, 09:41:00 PM »
Does adding weight to the front of my cedar shaft arrows stiffen or weaken the spine?  I have looked in the search area, but haven't been able to find the answer.  Thanks for your help!

As rule of thumb: adding 25 grains means 5 lbs weaker.
